Summer's here -- at least at the movie theater -- so we've got a jam-packed episode of Breakfast All Day for you. We begin with the movie that's kicking off blockbuster season: "Thunderbolts*," with an asterisk. It's the latest film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the best one in a long time. We really enjoyed this. In theaters. Next up is "Another Simple Favor," the sequel to the 2018 comic thriller "A Simple Favor." Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick reunite, and while there's not much spark left, the clothes are still spectacular. Streaming on Prime Video. Then, we honor the beautiful work of the late Halyna Hutchins with a review of "Rust." The cinematographer died in an accidental shooting during production on the Western. Now that the film is out -- and that proceeds are going to Hutchins' family -- we wanted to watch and discuss it. In theaters and on VOD. Finally, we catch up with "Havoc," which has been the No. 1 movie on Netflix for some reason. Tom Hardy plays a detective in a drug war between the city's corrupt mayor and its corrupt police department. From the director of "The Raid" movies. Streaming now. Plus, we did a Movie News LIVE! for the last time before Christy's lumpectomy on Monday. We're not sure what May is going to look like, but we wanted to make sure and say hi to our folks one more time. Among the topics we discussed were Jeremy Renner, "Sgt. Rock," John Mulaney's Netflix show and more. We'll keep you posted on our plans through Christy's Saturday Matinee newsletter.

Rust director Joel Souza joins for an interview about finishing a film that nearly killed him—and did kill talented cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Souza speaks candidly about grief, safety failures, and his estrangement from Alec Baldwin, as well as why completing Rust became a moral obligation rather than a commercial one.Plus National Security Adviser Mike Waltz is out, possibly taking the fall for Trump ally Pete Hegseth. Waltz, with four Bronze Stars and some bipartisan appeal, may have been too respectable for the MAGA machine; Hegseth, flashier and riskier, stays put.

Megyn Kelly is joined by Dr. Daniel Amen, author of "Raising Mentally Strong Kids," to talk about how parents are hurting their kids by helping them and doing so much for them, how it's actually a way for the parent to benefit rather than the kids, the keys to raising resilient kids, mistakes parents often make by coddling their children, the key factors of time and listening, how parents can stay involved responsibly in helping their kids when they're older, the dangers of social media, how to avoid raising dependent adult children, the need to notice kids and give positive affirmation rather than only paying attention to the negative, new ways of using brain scans to treat patients, and more. Then Rachel Mason, director of "Last Take: Rust and the Story of Halyna," joins to talk about what her friend cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was really like, the tragic "Rust" movie set shooting that took Halyna's life, why Halyna's family wanted to make sure the movie "Rust" was completed, how "Rust" is finally set to be released soon, why the film was "sad and painful" but also "magnificent" and well-made, how a live round could have gotten in the gun that Alec Baldwin shot that killed Halyna, all the mistakes that had to happen on the set to get to this point, the confusion on the set that day, how the shooting was like "fiction meeting reality," the guilt so many feel to this day, and more.Amen- https://www.amenclinics.com/Mason- https://www.instagram.com/futureclown/Jacked Up Fitness: Go to https://GetJackedUp.com and use code MK at checkout to save 10% off your entire purchaseBirch Gold: Text MK to 989898 and get your free info kit on goldFollow The Megyn Kelly Show on all social platforms:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/MegynKellyTwitter: http://Twitter.com/MegynKellyShowInstagram: http://Instagram.com/MegynKellyShowFacebook: http://Facebook.com/MegynKellyShow Find out more information at: https://www.devilmaycaremedia.com/megynkellyshow

Rachel Mason's documentary, Last Take: Rust and the Story of Halyna, is not a sensationalist recounting of tragedy. It's a deeply personal exploration of the life and untimely death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, whose life was tragically cut short on the set of Rust. Rachel, a friend and fellow filmmaker, centers the narrative on Halyna herself, weaving together interviews with her friends and colleagues to illuminate her legacy beyond the sensationalized headlines. Rachel and Halyna became friends through their children, who were classmates at the same daycare. This shared experience blossomed into creative collaboration, with Rachel and Halyna working together on music videos, gallery installations, and performance art pieces. Following Halyna's death, her widower, Matt Hutchins, entrusted Mason with the task of creating a documentary, out of a desire to counter the overwhelming media frenzy. “At first, the idea of doing a documentary about Halyna made literally no sense,” Mason recalls. “She's the person I wanted to make films with. Suddenly I had to recognize, no, she has passed on, and someone's got to tell the world who she was.” Rachel dove into Halyna's filmography and personal film archives that she had stored on hard drives. Halyna's detailed notebook for Rust, filled with ideas and references, offered a profound insight into her creative process. While Rachel wanted to create a beautiful biography about her friend, she recognized the need to confront the media's portrayal of the shooting. “The media portrayal of the way things unfolded became part of the film, because all the different people involved got distorted in the media. That became part of grappling with this story and trying to find the truth by going back and meeting the real people who were there.” As Halyna's friend, Rachel gained the trust of Halyna's colleagues on the film, who shared their memories of her. Halyna's own words from her notebooks and in messages and emails add to the narrative. Rachel also had to sit through the trial of the armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, which was one of the of the hardest things she had to do for the documentary. The decision to complete Rust after Halyna's death sparked ethical debates within the film community. However, her family, including her mother, strongly supported the project. Rachel, who was granted exclusive access to the set during filming, believes that finishing Rust was essential. “Halyna wanted the world to see her work. She was so ambitious,” Mason emphasizes. “I have no doubt, Rust was gonna be the film that all the other directors would see a new, up and coming superstar. This would have taken their breath away. She would have gotten calls—she would have been a high level DP.” You can see Last Take: Rust and the Story of Halyna on Hulu.

Last Take: The Tragic Story of Halyna Hutchins and the Rust Shooting A tragic accident on the set of "Rust" took Halyna Hutchins' life, and the new Hulu documentary "Last Take: Rust and the Story of Halyna" examines the failures that led to that moment. Directed by her friend Rachel Mason, the film attempts to honor Hutchins while also dissecting the catastrophic failures that led to her death. Halyna Hutchins was more than just a talented cinematographer. She was a mother, a wife, and an artist dedicated to her craft. And she loved working on "Rust." That's a painful truth that echoes throughout the documentary, revealed through her personal notes, messages, and behind-the-scenes footage. This wasn't just another job for her. She was fully invested. Then, in a single moment, everything changed. October 21, 2021. A routine rehearsal inside a small wooden church on the set of "Rust" in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Alec Baldwin, both the film's star and one of its producers, was handed a Colt .45 revolver. It was supposed to be a "cold gun"—an industry term for a firearm containing no live rounds. But when Baldwin pointed it toward the camera during the scene and pulled the trigger, a live bullet was discharged. The shot struck Halyna Hutchins in the chest and injured director Joel Souza, who was standing behind her. She was rushed to the hospital but didn't survive. The immediate aftermath was chaos. Authorities swarmed the set. Baldwin, visibly distraught, was questioned by investigators, struggling to comprehend how this could have happened. The film crew had already been in turmoil—complaints about unsafe working conditions, crew members walking off set in protest just days before. The warning signs were there, but no one stopped production. The documentary includes footage of Baldwin being informed that Hutchins had died. His reaction—shock, disbelief, horror—mirrors what most people felt when they first heard the news. A movie set, a place where safety should be an absolute priority, had turned into a crime scene. As the investigation unfolded, it became clear that corners had been cut. The film's armorer, Hannah Gutierrez Reed, was responsible for handling weapons on set, but she was young and relatively inexperienced. Reports surfaced that crew members had been using the prop guns for live target practice—a staggering breach of safety protocols. The question became: who was ultimately responsible? Baldwin, as an actor, claimed he was simply following directions. As a producer, could he have done more to ensure a safer set? And then there's Gutierrez Reed—should she have caught the live round before it ever made its way onto set? What about assistant director Dave Halls, who reportedly handed Baldwin the gun and declared it "cold"? The documentary doesn't shy away from these tough questions, but its focus isn't just the legal blame game. It's about the systemic failures that made this possible in the first place. Hutchins' widower, Matt Hutchins, served as an executive producer on the film, ensuring that her story remained at the center of it all. He initially pursued a wrongful death lawsuit against Baldwin and the "Rust" production team, which was eventually settled. But legal battles continue—Gutierrez Reed faces charges of involuntary manslaughter, and Baldwin himself was charged, then had those charges dropped, only for them to be reconsidered later. The bigger issue? This wasn't the first time safety has been compromised on a movie set, and unless serious changes happen, it won't be the last. The film industry has long relied on outdated practices, assuming accidents are rare enough to justify pushing boundaries. But the truth is, workplace safety shouldn't be an afterthought, whether it's in a factory, a construction site, or a Hollywood set. And when people raise red flags—like crew members did on "Rust"—they need to be taken seriously before tragedy strikes. During a panel discussion about "Last Take," director Joel Souza, who was also injured in the shooting, admitted that he wished the documentary focused more on Halyna's life rather than just the circumstances of her death. And he's not wrong. The documentary was originally intended to be a tribute, but as Mason put it, the commercial value of the "Rust" tragedy became an undeniable part of the story. That's the harsh reality of true crime and high-profile incidents—what starts as a personal loss often turns into a public spectacle. Baldwin, meanwhile, has returned to work and even launched a reality show with his family, a move that has drawn criticism. His involvement in "Rust" continues, as the film has resumed production, now with Hutchins' widower as an executive producer. That decision alone raises ethical questions—how do you finish a movie tied to such a devastating loss? And is there a right way to do it? Mason hopes the documentary serves a greater purpose beyond recounting the tragedy. She wants it to spark conversations about on-set safety, not just in Hollywood, but in workplaces everywhere. Because at the end of the day, this wasn't just an accident. It was a preventable failure at every level. And Halyna Hutchins should still be here. #RustTragedy #HalynaHutchins #AlecBaldwin #OnSetSafety Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

And he's not wrong. The documentary was originally intended to be a tribute, but as Mason put it, the commercial value of the "Rust" tragedy became an undeniable part of the story. That's the harsh reality of true crime and high-profile incidents—what starts as a personal loss often turns into a public spectacle. Baldwin, meanwhile, has returned to work and even launched a reality show with his family, a move that has drawn criticism. His involvement in "Rust" continues, as the film has resumed production, now with Hutchins' widower as an executive producer. That decision alone raises ethical questions—how do you finish a movie tied to such a devastating loss? And is there a right way to do it? Mason hopes the documentary serves a greater purpose beyond recounting the tragedy. She wants it to spark conversations about on-set safety, not just in Hollywood, but in workplaces everywhere. Because at the end of the day, this wasn't just an accident. It was a preventable failure at every level. And Halyna Hutchins should still be here. #RustTragedy #HalynaHutchins #AlecBaldwin #OnSetSafety Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Actor Alec Baldwin has filed a civil lawsuit against Santa Fe District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies, Special Prosecutor Kari Morrissey, and other officials, claiming malicious prosecution and violations of his civil rights. The lawsuit follows the dismissal of criminal charges against Baldwin in connection with the 2021 death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of Rust. Baldwin was holding a prop pistol during a rehearsal when it discharged, killing Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza. Baldwin faced an involuntary manslaughter charge, which was thrown out in July by Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer. The judge cited prosecutorial misconduct, including the withholding of key evidence related to the live ammunition on set. The lawsuit, filed Thursday, names additional defendants, including investigators from the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office, the First Judicial District Attorney's Office, the Santa Fe County Board of Commissioners, and the county itself. In the filing, Baldwin's attorneys accuse prosecutors of engaging in a “malicious and unlawful” pursuit of the actor for political and personal reasons. “Criminal prosecutions are supposed to be about the search for truth and justice, not to pursue personal or political gain or harass the innocent,” attorneys Luke Nikas and Alex Spiro stated. “Kari Morrissey and the other defendants violated that basic principle, over and over, and trampled on Alec Baldwin's rights. We bring this action to hold the defendants accountable for their misconduct and to prevent them from doing this to anyone else.” The lawsuit alleges that prosecutors intentionally concealed evidence that would have cleared Baldwin and instead sought to scapegoat him for Hutchins' death. Special Prosecutor Andrea Reeb is accused of making statements about how pursuing the case could benefit her political career as a Republican state representative. Baldwin's attorneys claim that false and incomplete testimony from Morrissey was used to secure his indictment. Responding to the lawsuit, Morrissey said, “In October 2023, the prosecution team became aware that Mr. Baldwin intended to file a retaliatory civil lawsuit. We look forward to our day in court.” The incident, which occurred during the filming of the Western Rust, reignited debates about firearms safety on film sets and led to multiple lawsuits, including Baldwin's. The actor is seeking financial damages through a jury trial, arguing that the defendants must be held accountable for their actions. “Defendants must now be held accountable for their malicious and unlawful pursuit of Baldwin,” the complaint states. The tragic shooting of Halyna Hutchins has left a lasting impact on Hollywood, with many calling for stricter safety protocols. Baldwin's lawsuit underscores broader concerns about the role of political influence and prosecutorial accountability in high-profile cases. #AlecBaldwin #RustLawsuit #HalynaHutchins #CivilRights #MaliciousProsecution #MovieSetSafety #Hollywood Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

On October 21, 2021 a small crew took their places on the set of a low-budget movie titled “Rust,” starring veteran actor Alec Baldwin. When it came time for the scene to be played out, Baldwin pulled out a revolver and a shot rang out. Confusion reigned as the frightened group looked in all directions. Then their eyes fixed on a single point …42-year-old cinematographer Halyna Hutchins gripping her chest. She took three small steps backwards then slumped to the floor. She'd been shot. A frantic call to 911 sent first responders cascading onto the rural movie set outside Santa Fe, New Mexico. A helicopter rushed Halyna to University of New Mexico Hospital in Albuquerque. By the time she arrived, there was little for doctors to do. Within minutes, Halyna Hutchins was pronounced dead. The questions were starkly obvious. Why was there live ammunition on a movie set? How did it get there? And how had a revolver loaded with a lethal round been placed in the hands of one of Hollywood's biggest stars?

Guests: Luke Nikas, partner in Quinn Emanuel's New York office and Quinn Emanuel associates Sarah Clark, Jennifer Stern, and Stephanie KelmanJohn is joined by four members of the trial team that obtained a dismissal of all charges in the recent New Mexico manslaughter case against Alec Baldwin. Mr. Baldwin was charged by the State of New Mexico with involuntary manslaughter following the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the film Rust when a prop gun Mr. Baldwin was holding accidentally discharged. They discuss the events of the tragic accident and the initial investigation by the District Attorney's office, which did not suggest any intent to charge Mr. Baldwin with a crime until about ten minutes before the press release announcing the manslaughter charges. They also discuss the resignation and replacement of the first Special Prosecutor, the FBI's destruction of the gun while testing it and the prosecution's subsequent dismissal of charges without prejudice, only to suddenly refile the charges later. Luke describes the team's pretrial motions to dismiss based upon the destruction of the gun, the withholding of evidence from the defense, and improper conduct by the prosecution before the grand jury. On the question of why there was live ammunition on a movie set, a critical breakthrough came during trial when witnesses testified that a former law enforcement officer had informed the prosecution that he had stored live ammunition for the film's prop supplier. The testimony revealed that these live rounds were potentially mixed in with dummy rounds used to train actors on other movie sets, offering a plausible alternative explanation for the live bullets found on the Rust set. The prosecution withheld this information from the defense before trial even though it cast doubt on the prosecution's theory that the film's young armorer was responsible for introducing live rounds to the set. The judge, after learning that the concealed bullets matched the type used in the fatal shooting, ruled that the prosecution had failed to disclose critical evidence and dismissed the charges mid-trial due to prosecutorial misconduct.

Halyna Hutchins on the movie set of “Rust” was dismissed with prejudice by trial Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer. The “prejudice” part of that means that the prosecution is prohibited from re-trying Baldwin on these manslaughter charges. Last week special prosecutor Kari Morrissey filed a motion to reconsider this dismissal with prejudice with Judge Sommer—and that's what we'll be taking a look at in today's show.The basis for the dismissal with prejudice was a purported Brady violation by the prosecution. Brady is a US Supreme Court case that requires the prosecution to turn over exculpatory evidence to the defense. My immediate objection to this particular dismissal with prejudice on the basis of this purported Brady violation premised on this “Thell Reed” ammo was that the particular source of the live round is immaterial to the manslaughter charge against Baldwin. In other words, where the Baldwin live round came from—whether from Gutierrez' father Thell Reed or from props supplier Seth Kenney or from a local Walmart was entirely irrelevant to the theory of Baldwin's criminal liability for manslaughter.With that context, let's dive into today's show.THERE IS ONLY ONE SELF-DEFENSE "INSURANCE" PROVIDER I TRUST!There are lots of self-defense "insurance" companies out there.

Two jurors involved in Alec Baldwin's "Rust" case, which was dismissed last week, are speaking out about their experiences and thoughts on the prosecution's case. Baldwin, the 66-year-old "30 Rock" alum, faced criminal charges nearly three years after the fatal incident on the set of "Rust" that resulted in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and the injury of director Joel Souza. Gabriela Picayo and Johanna Haag, who served as jurors, shared their doubts about the strength of the prosecution's case in an interview with The New York Times. Their insights provide a deeper understanding of the case's dynamics and the factors leading to its dismissal. Johanna Haag, known as juror No. 7, works in the advertising and marketing field. She recalled the prosecution showing the jury emotional law enforcement footage of the aftermath of the shooting. Haag described Baldwin as looking "shocked and stunned and so sad," which influenced her perception of the incident. "As the week went by, it just didn't seem like a very strong case," Haag told The Times. "It was clearly an accident, and the idea that there's anything purposeful, or the idea that there was this grave carelessness that caused this, didn't seem realistic to me." Similarly, Gabriela Picayo, a scientist who served as juror No. 9, believed that Baldwin, as an actor, should not have been expected to have extensive knowledge of gun safety. She emphasized that Baldwin should have trusted the experts on set to ensure safety. “I think he would have trusted the people, you know, on the set to do their job," Picayo said. She also reflected on the conviction of Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed for involuntary manslaughter. “I'm still here, I'm still open to hearing and obviously trying to stay unbiased,” she said, “but I was starting to move towards the direction of thinking that this was very silly and he should not be on trial.” Despite her initial leanings against convicting Baldwin, Picayo acknowledged that she "wasn't presented with all of the evidence, so I don't know what could have swayed me." The case against Baldwin was ultimately dismissed after his lawyer, Luke Nikas, argued that the prosecution had buried "critical" evidence. This evidence, ammunition discovered by a man named Troy Teske, a friend of the father of the convicted Rust armorer, was not disclosed to the defense. “At that point, I really started to feel sorry for Mr. Baldwin,” Haag said. “I thought, you know, ‘What's going on here? What is happening?' ” The dismissal of the case came as a surprise to the jurors. They found out only after being sent home and receiving a text message from the court that read "Trail CANCELLED," with the word "trial" misspelled. This development has sparked discussions about the handling of the case and the implications for Baldwin and others involved. As the legal proceedings conclude, the reflections of the jurors provide a glimpse into the complexities and challenges of this high-profile case. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Alec Baldwin's legal team has indicated plans to sue Santa Fe Sheriff Adan Mendoza and prosecutor Kari Morrissey after it was revealed they withheld critical evidence during Baldwin's trial for the on-set shooting death of “Rust” cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. In preservation notices obtained by Rolling Stone, Baldwin's attorneys warned both Mendoza and Morrissey of “future litigation” due to their actions during the involuntary manslaughter trial. The notices require both parties to “preserve all relevant information” including “devices, hard drives, emails, text messages, and other electronic communications” related to the case. This encompasses “all communications between and among anyone at the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office, the First Judicial District Attorney's Office, and/or the Special Prosecutor's Office related to the Incident,” as well as all “documents, communications, and information referencing or relating to Mr. Baldwin.” The notices also caution that failure to comply could result in “serious consequences, including civil liability, court sanctions, and adverse evidentiary inferences in any subsequent proceeding.” In a surprising turn of events, Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer dismissed Baldwin's case, citing the Santa Fe Sheriff's Office and Morrissey's failure to disclose key evidence regarding the source of the live round that killed Hutchins on October 21, 2021. Hutchins was fatally shot while preparing for a scene inside the Bonanza Creek Ranch in New Mexico. Baldwin was practicing a cross draw with a pistol when it accidentally discharged, striking Hutchins fatally and injuring director Joel Souza. Baldwin, aged 66, along with the film's armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, faced involuntary manslaughter charges for the incident. Gutierrez-Reed, found guilty in a separate trial, was sentenced to 18 months in prison in March. Following the dismissal of Baldwin's case, her legal team is seeking to overturn her conviction, citing similar prosecutorial misconduct. In a motion filed Tuesday, attorney Jason Bowles asserted that substantial evidence, undisclosed before the trial, had come to light. Bowles has also requested that Gutierrez-Reed be released from prison and called for the removal of special prosecutor Kari Morrissey due to alleged misconduct. District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies has continued to support Morrissey despite these allegations. Though Baldwin's criminal charges have been dismissed, he is not entirely free of legal battles. Civil lawsuits from Hutchins' family remain pending. Gloria Allred, representing Hutchins' parents and sister, emphasized that the judge's decision to dismiss the case does not exonerate Baldwin. “The judge's decision is in no way, shape, or form an exoneration of him,” Allred stated. “It does not change the fact that Alec Baldwin killed Halyna Hutchins on the set of 'Rust.' He fired a loaded gun while pointing it at a human being.” At a press conference on Saturday, Allred reiterated her commitment to seeking justice for Hutchins, vowing “to fight to the end for Halyna Hutchins.” Despite the case dismissal, the ongoing civil litigation ensures that Baldwin remains entangled in the legal ramifications of the tragic shooting on the “Rust” film set.

The trial of Alec Baldwin Criminal Negligent Homicide of Halyna Hutchins #HalynaHutchins #AlecBaldwin #CriminallyNegligentHomicide A prosecutor told jurors that Alec Baldwin “violated the cardinal rules of firearm safety” in opening statements Wednesday at his trial for involuntary manslaughter. “The evidence will show that someone who played make believe with a real gun and violated the cardinal rules of firearm safety is the defendant, Alexander Baldwin,” special prosecutor Erlinda Ocampo Johnson said. She emphasized that the set of the film “Rust,” where cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, “a vibrant 42-year-old rising star,” was shot and killed, was a workplace. “The evidence will show that like in many workplaces, there are people who act in a reckless manner and place other people in danger,” Johnson said. “That, you will hear, is the defendant.” Johnson walked the jurors through the events leading up to the Oct. 21, 2021, shooting. She said on that day, Baldwin declined multiple opportunities for standard safety checks before the rehearsal and instead “did his own thing” with the revolver at the rehearsal where Hutchins was killed. “He cocks the hammer, points it straight at Miss Hutchins, and fires that gun, sending that live bullet right into Miss Hutchins body,” Johnson said. Johnson is a relative newcomer to the case, appointed in late April by the Santa Fe district attorney's office. The trial will delve into the confluence of gun safety, high-wattage celebrity and a low-budget Western movie on the remote ranch set.

What can we expect Alec Baldwin's Manslaughter trial? #Baldwin #RustMovieSet #Manslaughter Alec Baldwin is headed to trial for involuntary manslaughter three years after the fatal shooting on the set of Rust. Baldwin, 66, was initially charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter in January 2023 after he was holding a prop weapon that contained real bullets on the film's set in New Mexico back in 2021. The shot killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injured director Joel Souza. Baldwin has maintained his innocence since the shooting and claimed he didn't pull the trigger of the prop gun. He pleaded not guilty in February 2023 and the criminal charges were dropped against the actor two months later. “We are pleased with the decision to dismiss the case against Alec Baldwin and we encourage a proper investigation into the facts and circumstances of this tragic accident,” Luke Nikas and Alex Spiro, attorneys for Baldwin said in an April 2023 statement. While the charges were dropped in 2023, Baldwin was indicted for a second time on involuntary manslaughter charges the following year. Baldwin's attorneys filed to have the case dismissed but the judge sided with prosecutors to let the trial continue.

In this episode of "Sara Gonzales Unfiltered," Sara discusses a letter from Reps. James Comer (R-Ky.), Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), and Jason Smith (R-Mo.) to AG Merrick Garland and special counsel David Weiss, calling for criminal referrals for Hunter and James Biden. They are accused of making false statements to Congress, implicating President Joe Biden in influence-peddling schemes. Sara highlights the courtroom drama of Hunter Biden's trial, questioning the DOJ's integrity and impartiality. Sara also addresses the Georgia Court of Appeals pausing the trial court proceedings in Donald Trump's 2020 election case involving Fani Willis, likely delaying the trial until after the 2024 election. She explores the implications of this delay and the possibility of harsher sentencing for Trump. Biden's DOJ has charged the Epoch Times CFO with a $67 million transnational money laundering scheme. Sara questions the timing and nature of these charges, considering the DOJ's selective prosecution patterns and the broader implications for conservative media. The episode critiques President Joe Biden's cognitive decline, referencing a Wall Street Journal report detailing his reliance on notes and aides, suggesting Biden is a figurehead for Obama-era policies. The conversation touches on the GOP's ineffectiveness and the need for voter engagement. Sara also talks about Alec Baldwin's involuntary manslaughter charge in the death of Halyna Hutchins and his new reality show on TLC, questioning Hollywood's double standards. Sara is joined by BlazeTV contributor Matthew Marsden and Glenn Beck's chief researcher, Jason Buttrill. Today's Sponsor: Relief Factor Visit https://relieffactor.com or call 1-800-4-relief.
